This is what burger night looks like at my house: Indian-spiced chickpea patties, cumin dusted sweet potato wedges, curry ketchup and cucumber raita. This is such a balanced and satisfying meal. It includes many different tastes, which according to Ayurvedic principles, is an important part of maintaining a healthy digestive system.

Ayurveda is an ancient Indian system of health and wellness that goes back more than 5000 years. It’s kind of like a sister science to yoga. By identifying a person’s temperament/body type or dosha, the Ayurveda system suggests foods, exercise and activities that provide balance, healing and overall wellness. There are lots of dosha quizes online that can give you a sense of your type.

As a culinary school grad and yoga enthusiast, I am very seriously into eating good healthy food and sharing creative, easy ways to prepare it. When I'm not cooking, I love teaching yoga, talking about yoga, reading about yoga and doing yoga. And I believe the more you live it, the more you find yourself wanting, even craving, clean wholesome food.
